EA: It’s in the game.

The Dodgers recalled Erisbel Arruebarrena from Double-A Chattanooga and placed Juan Uribe on the 15-day disabled list Wednesday.

Arruebarrena, a 24-year-old defensive dynamo at shortstop, has a .324/.359/.432 slash line since May 9 but was batting .136/.188/.220 prior to that. Here was a Southern League scout’s evaluation of Arruebarrena prior to his bump in performance.

Arruebarrena isn’t in the starting lineup for the Dodgers’ game against the New York Mets.
